Flareon (Japanese: ブースター Booster) is a Fire-type Pokémon.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

Flareon is the result of an Eevee being exposed to a Fire Stone. Out of all seven (so far) Eeveelutions, Flareon bears the closest resemblance to Eevee. Flareon's body is covered in red fur. Flareon has a large, bushy tail, fluffy collar and a tuft of fur on its head; all of which are yellow.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Flareon can use most of the moves that Eevee is capable of using, but it can also shoot powerful flames that have been known to reach a maximum of 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit. Due to the fact that Flareon is fully evolved, it can learn either Hyper Beam or Giga Impact.

Behavior

Habitat

Flareon are mainly found in hot places, but only rarely, as an Eevee needs to be exposed to a Fire Stone to evolve.

Trivia

  • Flareon is generally considered the least useful of the Eeveelutions, owing to its extremely poor movepool.
  • Flareon has the highest Attack base stat of the Eeveelutions.

Origin

It has traits of foxes, dogs, rabbits, and cats.

Name origin

Flareon's name is derived from flare. Eon is Eevee's proto-type name, in which Flareon evolves from. Its Japanese name may refer to rocket boosters, which propel things by combustion of fuel.

In other languages
